Abstract

A wireless mesh network employs an integrated interface between a plurality of access points for mitigating throughput degradation of multiple consecutive 'daisy chain,' or mesh, links. The mesh network employs a plurality of access points, each linked back to a root access point by a series of 'hops' through other access points. The wireless mesh network, therefore, employs a plurality of access points operable for wireless links to subscriber, or user, devices, including cellular phones, smart phones, tablet and laptop computing devices, or any suitable portable or handheld computing device. Access points establish an integrated interface with an adjacent access point for direct coupling of the access points for message traffic. The resulting integrated access point establishes a wireless link to a root access point connected to a backhaul network from which media services emanate.
